A Britain the British won't recognise and one sold to the population of the United States that even they are unlikely to believe.
I've always liked the story and always find time to watch any version of it when it is presented, even though they are usually only loosely based on the original. This time they have gone too far, by embellishing the story so much it barely resembles it at all.
Add to that the ridiculous notion that a small village and its occupants is somehow in need of being saved from its stiff-upper-lipped and stuffy self by the American dream is utterly infuriating.
So-so acting, dragged down further by the terrible accents and then crushed further into the dirt by a contemptible story alteration make for an excruciating watching experience.
Save yourselves!
